Damn, some good deals on Walmart right now, for once. Especially on these Army builders, but also got some Legends exclusives at half price. Was just thinking yesterday about how you never get deals from Walmart like you do with Target when they go into clearance mode. Guess this upends that mentality.

LOVE this. Love the new graphics. And love that hes the PoC version (my first 4 alley viper). Fingers crossed that Walmart doesnt goof again ? ?
Okay, now I really don't want my preorder cancelled.
I would have loved this anyway, because the Pursuit of Cobra-inspired deco is just an awesome colors cheme, but I REALLY love that there's a new graphic on the inside of the shield, and that Hasbro even went as far as to print a little HUD on the inside of the visor and really wish they had done that with the first Alley Viper, even though it's something that would rarely be seen (it's fun to just know it's there).

I hope so too bud, but with the absolute ordeal it's been with the retros and more recently with the Range Viper, things aren't looking too good ?
Hopefully they learned from the Range Viper glitch and we all get ours this time!

They don't "pick" them. Walmart throws large wads of money at Hasbro in exchange for the exclusives.

Hasbro Pulse is a JOKE. Its a monument to ineptitude. How it stays around, I don't know.
Range Vipers have not been cancelled (not yet, anyway). While not all Walmart CS staff will say the same thing, what most seem to be saying when contacted is that there is some kind of promotion going on that started today, and the figures are in the middle of a price adjustment. Many customers who had multiple figures on preorder (Range Vipers, Star Wars Black Series Fives, Mattel MOTU Duplico, and several others) have temporarily had their prices zeroed out. I've seen hundreds of people talking about this situation all day, and no one has actually been told their figures have been cancelled, and they are all still on their pending order pages, including mine. Expect the price on the Range Vipers to change again, and while cancellations are a possibility, as of right now, nothing is cancelled. The best move right now is to to make sure your payment and shipping info is current and keep an eye on your emails and your orders.BTW, if the Range Viper discussion continues, it should continue within the relevant topic, linked below:
